## OpenAPI Spec Example

```yaml
# src/main/resources/openapi.yaml
openapi: 3.0.3

  title: Order Service API
  version: 1.0.0

paths:
  /api/v1/orders:
    post:
      tags: [Orders]
      operationId: createOrder
      requestBody:
        required: true
        content:
          application/json:
            schema:

      responses:

      parameters:
        - name: page
          in: query
          schema: { type: integer, default: 0 }
        - name: size
          in: query

          content:
            application/json:
              schema:
                $ref: '#/components/schemas/OrderPage'

components:
  schemas:
    CreateOrderRequest:
      type: object
      required: [customerEmail, items]
      properties:
        customerEmail:
          type: string
          format: email
        items:
          type: array

          format: uuid
        status:
          type: string
          enum: [PENDING, PROCESSING, SHIPPED, DELIVERED, CANCELLED]
        customerEmail:
          type: string
        createdAt:
          type: string
          format: date-time

  responses:
    ValidationError:
      description: Validation failed
      content:
        application/json:
          schema:
            $ref: '#/components/schemas/ApiError'
```

## Implementing the Delegate

```java
// Generated: OrdersApi interface with delegate
// Your implementation — never modify generated files

@Service
@RequiredArgsConstructor
public class OrdersApiDelegateImpl implements OrdersApiDelegate {

    private final OrderService orderService;

    @Override
    public ResponseEntity<OrderResponse> createOrder(CreateOrderRequest request) {
        Order order = orderService.createOrder(request);
        return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.CREATED)
            .body(OrderApiMapper.toResponse(order));
    }

    @Override
    public ResponseEntity<OrderPage> listOrders(Integer page, Integer size) {
        Page<Order> orders = orderService.findAll(PageRequest.of(page, size));
        return ResponseEntity.ok(OrderApiMapper.toPage(orders));
    }
}
```

## .gitignore — Never Commit Generated Files

```gitignore
target/generated-sources/openapi/
```

## Gotchas
- Agent modifies generated controller files — NEVER modify generated code, implement delegate
- Agent generates code without `useSpringBoot3=true` — uses old `javax.*` imports
- Agent commits generated sources — add to `.gitignore`, generate on build
- Agent skips `skipDefaultInterface=true` — generates default methods that hide missing impls
- Agent mixes generated models with hand-written models — keep them separate
